Test Review

Today in class you gave us our tests back. I got an 85 on it, which I am pretty happy about but I could have done better. The questions that I got wrong were simple mistakes that I could easily work on before we have to take exams. After you gave us our tests back we reviewed it. We went over every question and read out loud the answers. This for me is very beneficial because I feel like when I hear the information I retain it better. I feel like keeping and reviewing these tests will help me in the long run when I take the final, which is not very far from now. Overall I did ok on my test, but I think that I could have studied a little more and gotten a better grade, but I can use what I have learned to help me on my exam.

Alexander mounted him right there and rode him away. Starting from that first day when Bucephalus and Alexander met they had a unique relationship and went through many battles together and ended up dying after the Battle of Hydaspes River. I used to own a horse of my own and can relate to some extent on the...

Why the philosophers started questioning traditional beliefs

Socrates and Sophists like Protagorus would have started questioning traditional beliefs at this particular point in history for a few reasons. Socrates, first started by standing his ground about the the crime of the Athenians sailing back to Athens without picking up any of the soldiers that had fallen overboard. Socrates' view was that this crime was not bad enough for the people to be killed and that the assembly needed to calm down and he made it clear that he was going to stand his ground and vote against it because it was the wrong thing to do. Instead of listening to society these men listened to what their own reasoning said to do and not what the society was telling to to think or believe. I think that Socrates and the other philosophers knew that many of the things that the Greek society taught did not make sense and they believed that the teachings were wrong. I think that there were other people in the society that also felt that way but that many people were too afrai...
